TaeguTec SCMT09T304-PC TT9080
Precision Finishing Specialist: High-Performance PVD for Exotic Materials
Product Overview
"Which CNC insert provides the most stable edge life and finest surface finish when machining titanium or Inconel at precision tolerances?"
The TaeguTec SCMT09T304-PC TT9080 is the ultimate answer for ISO S (Super Alloys) and ISO M (Stainless Steel) finishing. The TT9080 grade features a specialized fine-grained substrate and a dense PVD coating that resists high-temperature oxidation and chemical wear. The PC (Precision/Positive) chipbreaker is geometry-optimized with a sharp, positive rake to minimize work hardening and heat generation. With a 0.4mm radius, this insert excels in high-precision finishing passes, ensuring dimensional stability and a superior surface Ra value in the most challenging exotic metals.
Key Features
Specifically designed for high heat resistance, preventing notch wear and built-up edge in aerospace-grade alloys.
Sharp cutting edge allows for low cutting forces, vital for maintaining accuracy on thin-walled or small-diameter parts.
The PVD coating acts as a superior heat barrier, extending tool life during long finishing cycles in high-temp materials.

Verified Global Feedback
"Excellence in Inconel"
We use these for finishing passes on turbine blades. The tool life in Inconel 718 is significantly better than competitors. Very stable edge.
— Aero-Tech Components (USA)"Präzise Oberflächen"
The PC chipbreaker is amazing for fine finishing in 316Ti. Excellent surface Ra and very predictable wear patterns.
— Precision Zerspanung (Germany)"Qualità Top su Titanio"
Perfect for medical implants. The 0.4mm radius allows for high-precision geometries with very clean cuts. Zero built-up edge.
— Meccanica Medica (Italy)"Reliable Sharpness"
Very sharp edge that stays sharp even after long runs in tough stainless. Very consistent batch-to-batch quality.
— Sato Precision (Japan)Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is TT9080 better than TT5080 for Titanium?
Yes. TT9080 is the premier grade for finishing in Titanium and Super Alloys due to its superior heat resistance and edge stability.
2. Can I use this for medium turning?
The PC chipbreaker is specialized for finishing. For medium turning, we recommend the MT chipbreaker for better chip management at higher depths of cut.
